Spammers also create blog accounts to add spam as comments to blogs,

I haven't noticed any of this specifically on
wiki.objectstyle.org ........ just saying.
And I like that it is *easy* for any community developers to get an
account and contribute. This is the path of *least resistance* for
the community to accumulate and share knowledge for sure IMHO.
But I like the fact that only a few can modify the wocommunity.org
pages... I'm a big fan of wikis, but without editors and
administrators, it can be a total chaos, especially for "critical
content", the "Getting started" page is such content. We can't
"afford" that anybody with an account can delete/modify the critical
content and looking like fools because wocommunity.org links to
deleted content or content with spam links in it... But we can use
the wiki to write drafts of the content for wocommunity.org...
I think both sites are needed. But no more sites than those two. We
are in violent agreement. :-)

Really wiki.objectstyle.org is *the* best single centreal site
because we *all* have access to it and we can *all* update it. It

community support beast is that stuff will be scattered around
the place, but IIRC, we all kinda agreed that the wiki was to be
the central "community knowledge" store and wocommunity.org was
the "ambassador for WO" .......
Why the WAS in "wocommunity.org was the "ambassador for
WO" ......." ? Why talking in the past? Yes, the site didn't get
some love for a couple of months because I like busing doing two
WOWODCs, having people asking me what future WO have, doing damage
control when stupid Web sites talks about Apple dropping WO support
in SL, editing 30 hours of video content, and building the store.
So yeah, I think it's a bit normal that the Web site didn't get some
love. But I'm finally getting some help for the new design and for
content...
Hey, I lived in a Gaeltacht (Irish speaking district) until I was
17yrs old, so forgive my imperfect English :-P ..... I meant we agreed
"in that past" .... it still *is* the ambassador site as far as I am
concerned.
If pascal wants, he could include the entire wiki within a page
frame on wocommunity.org for newbie lack of immediate confusion
perhaps. For wocommunity.org changes, we must direct that to
Pascal.
One advantage for the wiki is that everyone can update it, but it
also a big problem. Spammers can update it, someone can delete the
content, etc. And as for updating the wocommunity.org, I have no
problem with having helpers, sadly so far only David LeBer is
helping me on that.
